[Revival Guide] In-Depth Crafting Guide

Crafting is one of the greatest ways to make Zeni in DBOG, and you’ll learn a ton about the game on the way. Contrary to what many may think, it’s not hard or that expensive to do at all. It can be very fun, very addictive and very frustrating at times, but you get out of it what you put in.

I believe everybody should craft, no matter the level. It's a great investment in the long term, as with a bit of time and patience you can craft anything. Hopefully with more crafters in-game we’ll have more reasonable prices in the Auction House too. Let’s get started.

I recommend at least 1 or 2 million Zeni before you begin. You can start with less but it may be a struggle at first due to recipe costs, material costs (if you're not farming them) and crafting fees. To begin, we’ll be wanting to head to Popped Village, Water Bridge or Namek Fountain in Yahoi West, Fran Fran Desert North or Porunga Rocks North respectively:

Once you’ve acquired a decent amount of each material (at least a stack or two), we can begin to craft.

Crafting Basics (Levels 1-10):

To begin crafting you'll first need some 01 materials. You can obtain 01 materials by killing low level mobs (level 1-5) and dismantling their gear, or you can buy level 1 gear from a Weapon or Armor Merchant.

I'll use Kokkara in Yahoi West as example as it's my favourite place to craft altogether, as everything is close to each other (Bank, Upgrade Merchant, Mailbox, Teleporter, Etc.).

A Weapon Merchant is located next to a Upgrade Merchant in Kokkara too. Here is what you should buy for both 01 and 02 materials:

You can either use a Hoi Poi machine located next to certain Crafting Masters (as seen above), or you can use a widely known “secret” to craft anywhere. To craft anywhere you like firstly click the box icon with “WP” written on it located at the bottom right of your screen.

Select the crafting recipe you wish to make, then right click the required materials in your inventory to add them to the crafting window. All recipes of the same level give the same amount of experience for each item crafted, so it doesn't matter what you make to level crafting.

Once you’ve added the materials, hit the max button then the start button to begin.

Once you reach level 5 crafting, you will no longer receive experience for level 1 recipe items you craft. You will have to start crafting level 5 recipe items to level up. This applies everytime you can craft a higher level recipe.

This is where crafting starts to get good, and it really doesn't take long to get to this point either.

The level 30 gear acquired can sell for decent money, depending on what you obtain.

Level 30 is the point when everybody becomes an adult and chooses their master class. Therefore people are generally more willing to spend Zeni on gear. The only item I would say that is guaranteed to sell are pieces of armor with Constitution, with 12 being the highest amount you can obtain.

If you are purchasing gear to dismantle, I suggest crafting at the weapons merchant next to the upgrade merchant on West City from now on. The Weapon Merchant here sells gear that can give either 03, 04 or 05 Materials. Lvl 30 for 03 materials. Lvl 38 for 04 materials and lvl 46 for 05 materials.

The reason being that when you dismantle the level 65 gear made from the recipes you bought in Porunga, you don't receive 06 materials back. You instead receive 07 materials, whereas the Level 60 gear crafted from the recipes purchased in Fearland give 06 materials back. This makes it harder to level in the long run, as you'll be having to farm far more gear to dismantle or purchase far more items to dismantle. This is a pain in the ass for the moment but you'll have stockpiled 07 materials for when you've reached 30 crafting. If you're purchasing materials from vendors, then the best place to my knowledge is here in Porunga:

This can be very tedious as you'll be making far, far more trips back and forth than you'd like too. Fighter's/Dende's can add random strangers to your friends list whilst crafting, or place an alternative account of your own in a spot so you can abuse Instant Transmission & teleport straight to a Upgrade Merchant to disassemble your gear. I suggest Kokkara again due to how close the teleporter is to everything else.

You will receive the same amount of experience for crafting either level 60 or 65 gear, so it doesn't matter too much which option you choose. Either way this is the longest part of crafting and can become costly but the reward is worth it. Continue crafting either until you reach 30 crafting, and try to have fun doing so.

TIPS & TRICKS:

Fighters or Dendes are the easiest to level crafting with due to Instant Transmission. At level 25 crafting you’ll have a far easier time than any other class, because once you’ve purchased gear to dismantle at Porunga you can Instant Transmission to somebody at the Upgrade Merchant, which saves TONS of time overall.

Level 20 recipes and below you can craft as many items as you like until you run out of zeni, without the need to obtain more materials. You’ll receive as many materials as you used, or more than you used, when you dismantle the items you have crafted. You’ll need at least 3 stacks of blue materials and one stack of yellow to do so.

When you throw away items (such as excess materials gained from dismantling items), you can drag and drop all the items you wish to throw away then spam click the “Ok/Cancel” window. This saves a lot of time, and a lot of clicks too.

Crafting makes zeni in a slow and tediuous process. I just craft gear to save zeni, not sell it. Besides, people only care about boxxing legendary loot

Crafting has its own benefits. As for example, there is gear that is worth 10kk as much, and you will see it on AH for 30kk with a shitty +8 upgrade. Or you can be a namek, who benefits a lot from crafted gear defenses. Or you can be a barely played class and you never see weapons for you on AH. Crafting right now is way cheaper than buying from somewhere else and it makes you individual, not dependant on what's new on AH today.

Yes, it may be slow and tedious in the process, but its truly satisfactory when you get lvl 25-30 on craft and you can create whatever you want.

Don't get me wrong, I maxxed my crafting and have perfect LP regen gear for my majin, but that's all I care for, I sell some of it, but barely make more than 10kk

Edit: when I was trying to fill the table, I noticed there is no real sequence, no real pattern from one number to another, they don't have anything in common. Its' just like that, info provided from a GM, otherwise it would be totally impossible to get the table done just by guessing.
